"Virtual Diagnosis,” a medical diagnosis application, was featured on NewsWatch as part of its 2014 Consumer Electronic Show Wrap Up, which took a look at the latest and coolest technology showcased at the trade show. Scott Steinberg, a guest host of NewsWatch and technology expert, conducted the app review and shared with viewers how it helps consumers understand a diagnosis or qualify a previous opinion.

With millions of apps on the market, it’s hard to know what’s legitimate and what’s not. That couldn’t be more true than in the medical field. Virtual Diagnosis, an application showcased at the 2014 Consumer Electronics Show, was created by qualified spinal surgeons to help patients understand a diagnosis or qualify a previous opinion.

Using artificial intelligence, the app asks specific questions to the patient, then uses those answers to create a medical report with the most likely diagnosis and treatment options, along with a detailed explanation. Virtual Diagnosis also explains the meaning of symptoms, allows a consumer to perform clinical tests on themselves, and helps recognize radiological signs. The app does not replace a doctor, especially because it was created by one, but it follows the concept of shared diagnosis.
